Interesting!
I like to look it stars and this is where my APO refractor excels!

"A a" is a deranged nutter who belongs in your kill file.

Looks real enough to me. It has been observed before and the innermost

Also backed up by X-ray observations of WR 140 and comparing optical
light curves around periastron and well away from closest approach.
